🌿Nature finds a way inside this abandoned 1950s glass factory. Once a prestigious multinational HQ, the site now sits derelict and left to the elements. Inside the Modernist concrete shell are several massive internal atriums. Now, miniature worlds of greenery. A happy byproduct of decades of unchecked growth that is slowly engulfing this lost place.

@ObsidianUrbex I love modernist architecture reclaimed by nature. The contrast between the bold concrete and the freely sprouted plants is incredible. It's suggesting that from our idea of ordered spaces can rebirth the chaotic idea of nature, about filling every corner of the planet.
In non-abandoned modern spaces I love the idea of luxorious inner gardens.
I'd love a house with a winter garden - and a gardener to keep it.

It must have been interesting when the place was in use, these inner gardens must have been both beautiful and a little strange.
@ObsidianUrbex Not really strange, I've seen many inner gardens.
Even in a humble offices complex where I worked in the 90s we had a (supposed) inner garden on the first floor, where some offices had a window to. I write "supposed" as it was nearly abandoned like the places you visit 😅
